After the help of the experts on here

Is here any way of wirelessly running tv signal from a wall socket around the room?

We live in a new build house so sky and tv etc have sockets on the Walls but the mrs has a bad habit of wanting to change the room around nearly every weekend now I hate having to run long av cables around the room especially when you have to navigate past door etc!

I know you can get wireless signal sender that Plug into Scart connectors to send to an upstairs room etc but I'm wanting something that will plug into the wall socket!

Anyone have any ideas that may help???

TIA

Just tell her you cant have the TV over there because the aerial point is here! The same way you cant move the door oveer there because that is where the window is!

if you just have sky in the room leave the box where it is an run a single coax around the room and run a magic eye off it. you can hide a single coax pretty easy down between the carprit grip and skirting boards

Get the Skyplayer for xBox, then connect the xBox wirelessly to your router (and also to your TV)..
This would mean you could watch Sky via the xBox anywhere in the house... you can also use facebook and Twitter...

The only real option then is to extend it. What type is it? Is it just a single aerial connection or one of those multi doo dads, if its a multi then dont make the mistake of running a coax for every single connection that is on the front, just take the face plate off and there will be 2 (or 3 worst case) coaxes, extend those and re fit the wall plate on the end of the extension and a blank where the wall plate used to be. Using some of that 2 core stuff the sky guys use make a neat job of it.

depending on the type of face plate that you have for instance is it has 3 outlets in a triangular shape doing this will not work as the face plate is un diplexing the signal from a distribution system near the dish and aerial but if its one of the more common ones found in new builds that has up to 5 outputs and also power outputs and the entire face plate is the size of a 14 piece of paper then yes this will work fine for u
